The Anambra central senatorial
rerun Saturday registered poor turnout in all the seven local government areas
of Anambra state involved.
Newsmen who monitored the rerun
election reports that in some polling units, electoral officers were seen
sitting idle as a result of low turnout by voters.
In Ebeakpu square unit 11,
Amawbia ward one, Awka south LGA, Mozie Ngozi blessing the APO one of the unit
said that the unit has witnessed attendance, but stated that it
cannot be compared with the just concluded governorship election.
In Agulu, the Agulu Lake Migrant
School polling unit was desolate, with only polling officers seen in the
square.
One of the INEC staff who refused
to disclose his name said the officials will remain at the centre until the
stipulated time for voting before leaving.
The scenario was, however,
different at Aguluzoigbo town ward 18, where the APGA candidate for the rerun
election, Chief Victor Umeh was to cast his vote.
The turn out was massive, and an
elder of the community said, “We have to come out o support our son. So even if
the turn out is different in other places, it has to be different here.
